"All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ. Even before he made the world, God loved us and chose us in Christ to be holy and without fault in his eyes. God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure." - Ephesians 1:3-5

An emotional day

Today was an emotional day from start to finish. That's why I suppose it hit the heartstrings when Jaycie said what she said. We were on our way home from AWANA when Nikelle and her friend started talking about Christmas which led to Jesus' birth which brought conversation about Jesus dying on the cross for us which naturally led to his resurrection. We mentioned how Jesus proved he was God by raising from the dead. How everyone else stays dead when they die. This is when Jaycie chimed in.

Jaycie: "But Grandpa and Papa will come back when it snows."Me: "No, Jay. They won't. Grandpa and Papa are in Heaven with Jesus."Jaycie: "Then who will play Santa at Grams' house?"Me: "That's a nice memory we have of Papa, Jay. We'll just have to see who else can be Santa."

About Me

Over the years, I have struggled with finding my identity. At times I've looked to my husband, my daughters, my parents and extended family, even friends. Lately, the importance of finding my identity in God alone has been extreme. Looking to anyone else for my identity has caused me great heartache and confusion. Being God's child gives me a solid forever identity that will not change.

Micah 6:8
